About this map

The Cranfield Oil and Gas Field dominates the central portion of this Adams County landscape, illustrating the region's long-standing reliance on petroleum extraction. Small settlements like Cranfield, Fenwick, and Leesdale are scattered along the road network, which includes historic routes like Old Meadville Rd and Old Highway 84 No 3. These towns and the surrounding rural areas are punctuated by numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Roaring Dale Cem, Higgland Cem, and the Tate Cem located near Moss Grove Rd.

The hydrography of the area is defined by the winding paths of S Fork Coles Cr, Sandy Cr, and Saint Catherine Cr, which carve through the terrain. Evidence of the area's agricultural and industrial history is found in place names such as the Forest Home Oil Field and the Southwest Cranfield Oil Field. The presence of a Low Water Bridge Rd crossing S Fork Coles Cr underscores the rural character and topographical challenges of the Mississippi interior.
